Of course, I plan on teaching my students every time I return back to Korea for vacation, but I want my students to continue their studies while I am gone overseas for college.
For several weeks, I've been searching for an organization that could offer my students a sound education after I leave Korea this September. I found 배움을 나누는 사람들 aka 배나사 (People Who Share Learning). Established in 2007 by a Harvard graduate and a political associate Lee Jun Suk, this organization researches and creates its own educational courses. The volunteers teach and manage the organization. (site: http://www.edushare.kr/)
The only drawback is that the nearest branch (there aren't that many) of this organization is located in Yongsan, which is a little distant from Guryong village. Should I contact Lee Jun Suk and ask him to send few volunteers every Saturday to Guryong village? Or should we cooperate to establish another branch in Gangnam, so the students who dwell in the few slums left in this area could all access the organization? Will this be possible?
Well, at least I will be daring greatly.

Last week, I took Woo Jung to an orthopedic doctor because she hurt her knee. I hope she recovers her injury by the time I see her this Saturday:') Thankfully, she didn't have any serious bone damages. Whew!
